Hello.

I have a machine with two IDE drives and a small internet connexion.
The machine is Win2k on a primary NTFS partition and a working OpenBSD 
on another drive. One of the drives should have enough free space to
install FreeBSD, the problem is how.  I could think of:

 o Use OpenBSD to create the FreeBSD partition and make it bootable,
 o Use Win2k with the same purpose,
 o Convert NTFS to FAT32 and try the same with MS-DOS...

Unfortunately, I don't even know if that is possible on practice. Besides
attaching a floppy drive, could somebody give an advice?

Thank you,
--yura
